In seventh grade we were given a writing assignment: 500 words on the most interesting person you know. There was only one choice: Uncle Milton! He was just the most fun person I knew, from his fur hat and fur coat, to his dramatic stories, to his incredible artistic gifts. He had a unique and wonderful spirit. God Bless you, Uncle Milty!
